Artwork Description

A day trip to the town of Perigueux with wife, parents in law and my sister and her husband. We had an Airbnb in Bergerac and visited castles, towns and rivers every day. Such a beautiful area! Amazingly we met a French tour guide on the gabarres tour boats who had lived in Perth WA for 3 years, she was so excited to talk about her experiences in Australia.!

I love capturing the people in a busy street and sitting at cafes. More of an impression with enough there for the mind to fill in the detail. I paint with large brushes and bold loose brush strokes in vibrant colours.
